I was formally diagnosed with an autism spectrum disorder by a psychologist when I was a child - I don't need an online test.
Although I hate to admit this I don't understand anything in your post, Perna

Sports cars? I don't see the connection?
. I don't have a red car…?

What did you talk about, what did she talk about.

You notice similarities or things you like and point them out so you can get a conversation started (after they have noted your presence; you can't just walk up to a person you haven't been introduced to and not scare them a bit, making personal statements). "I see you like Yoo-Hoos, I do too!" or just, "I wish they'd put Yoo-Hoos in the vending machine, they're my favorite drink". One can't really "fail" at that?

You can't walk straight up to someone and talk to them like that?
I do that all the time? What's to be scared of? I've done that several times. One day I approached 3 different women in different places and told them that they are pretty
. And what if there are no women around me that I can spend time with? I'm not in employed, in school, or anywhere. Moreover, I find small talk like that to be hard, so, yes, I can definitely fail at that.
